Nicole talks about mental health and activism through the lens of internal strength—not the kind built from rigid boundaries or symptom control, but the kind that can hold sensation and stay connected under pressure. She explores how resentment often hides inside activism, distorting it into performance or revenge, and makes a case for dignity, empathy, and real connection instead. The conversation moves through the pitfalls of political identity, showing how labels can replace intimacy and how understanding—not agreement—is what allows change to happen. With stories from both past and present movements, Nicole points to the power of clear vision and respectful dialogue as tools for true, lasting impact.
